We report an innovative approach for the controlled release of DNA, based on clusters of core–shell magnetic nanoparticles. The primary nanoparticles are functionalized with a single-stranded oligonucleotide, whose pairing with a half-complementary strand in solution induces clusterization. The application of a low frequency (6 KHz) alternating magnetic field induces DNA melting with the release of the single strand that induces clusterization.

Abstract
We report an innovative approach for the controlled release of DNA, based on clusters of core–shell magnetic nanoparticles. The primary nanoparticles are functionalized with a single-stranded oligonucleotide, whose pairing with a half-complementary strand in solution induces clusterization. The application of a low frequency (6 KHz) alternating magnetic field induces DNA melting with the release of the single strand that induces clusterization.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
